A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE
It is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more at
tention. us they control the other or
gans to a remarkable degree and do a
tremendous amount of work in remov
ing the poisons and waste matter from
the system by littering the blood.
During the winter months especially,
when we live an indoor life, the kid- :
neys should receive some assistance i
when needed, as we take less exercise, i
drink less water and often eat more ]
rich heavy food, thereby forcing the i
kidneys to do more work than Nature !
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble, j
such as lame back, annoying blad
der troubles, smarting or burning i
brick-dust or sediment, sallow com
plexion, rheumatism, maybe weak or
irregular heart action, warns you that
your kidneys require help immediately j
to avoid more serious trouble.
Many physicians claim that an 1
herbal medicine, containing no min
erals or opiates, lias the most' healing
influence. An ideal herbal compound !
that hns had most remarkable success!
as a kidney and bladder remedy is
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root.
You may receive a sample bottle of j
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
l>r. Kilmer Co., Binghamton. N. Y..

If Coffee Were Sold
in Drug Shops
just as the coffee drug, caffeine, is sold, would you
buy it?
Wouldn't it bring home to you very forcibly,
the fact that coffee is not a food but a drug?
Caffeine is a cause of indigestion, heart trouble,
nervousness, constipation and kindred ills. Some
persons are strong enough to drink coffee without
immediate harm, but many others are not.

couraged: make the best of the slip
up in yoty date book by going to

That's what some 800 enthusiastic
folks who composed last evening's
"first night" audience thought: any
way, some of them were so frankly
pleased that on their way out of the
theater they paused at the box office
-—and bought tickets tor to-ninht. All
of which, of course, will help to swell
the receipts for the benefit fund of

has been produced.

sults of his weeks of training and with j

"Pay as You Go"
Policy For State
Roads Advocated
The adoption of a "pay as you go"
policy to pay for improvement of the
roads of the State is recommended by
the committee on roads and road
making of the State Board of Agri
culture tills afternoon. The report
was made by P. S. Fenstermacher. of
AMentown, the chairman.
The report said: "Whatever sys
tem. or kind of" materials, for building
of improved highways are selected the
aggregate will, for all time to come,
be a severe drain upon the revenues
of the State. We heartily endorse the
recommendation of the special road
committee for the purpose of devising
I ways and means to build and maintain
the highways of the Commonwealth,
as reported and adopted at the
Stroudsburg meeting of the State
Board. AYe would call special atten
tion to the third item, which recom
mends 'A pay as von go' policy, and
as opposed to a bond issue, feeling
confident that the revenues of the
State, properly applied, are sufficient
to carry on this work.
"We believe that the indiscriminate
appropriation of the State's funds for
all manner of educational and charit
able institutions, not owned or con
trolled by the State, many of which
could, by proper management, be
made self sustaining: by the munici
palities in which they are located, is
both wrong' in principle as well as of
doubtful legality."
